Chapter 1449: Chapter 1139: Lu Chen Arrives

Watching the Fate Golden Dragon already showing cracks, with Qi Fortune starting to leak out, the Mingxin Emperor was completely helpless.

He finally understood why the opponent made a move; the disparity in power was not just a bit.

Moreover, with five Great Emperors on the opponent’s side, and them joining forces, he feared he wouldn’t even have the chance to detonate his Divine Soul before being killed.

No, this cannot go on!

The Mingxin Emperor burned his Divine Soul once more, planning to send his Law Manifestation directly to the Ning’an Emperor’s side and detonate it.

Yet, a voice echoed at this moment, “A Great Emperor of the Sixth Layer Realm? Interesting!”

Upon hearing this voice, the Mingxin Emperor finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Chen had arrived, and he felt reassured.

Upon hearing this voice, the Ning’an Emperor instantly became alert; at the moment the voice appeared, he did not sense it at all, nor did he detect the presence of a strong being nearby.

This indicated that the newcomer’s strength might surpass his own.

Of course, this was obviously a misjudgment by the Ning’an Emperor, as the visitor’s cultivation state was not higher than his.

At this point, Ning’an Emperor suspected there was a strong ally supporting the Mingxin Emperor, so he immediately paused his attack and looked at the distant void questioning, “Who are you, exactly? Are you just hiding in the shadows?”

Hearing this, Lu Chen merely chuckled lightly, and the next moment, he manipulated the Space Path, causing a massive vortex to appear in the void behind the Mingxin Emperor. Subsequently, a giant Immortal Boat flew out of the spatial passage.

When the Feihong Immortal Boat appeared, a blue barrier instantly spread across the entire Mingxin Dynasty, encompassing the Mingxin Emperor within it.

Seeing the blue barrier, the Mingxin Emperor thought of the barrier of the Daxia Dynasty, feeling puzzled as he had been told it would expand to the Mingxin Dynasty only after they completed their ceremony.

Why had the ceremony not yet been held, yet this blue barrier had already protected the Mingxin Dynasty? Could it be that this barrier of Emperor Xia could actually expand infinitely?

Considering this possibility, the Mingxin Emperor gasped inwardly, thinking if it were so, then Emperor Xia’s power was surely beyond what he perceived; sustaining such an Array Barrier must incur immense costs.

Facing the blue barrier, the Ning’an Emperor frowned slightly, being a Great Emperor of the Sixth Layer Realm, he was more sensitive to fluctuations in power.

At first glance at this barrier, he realized it might not be easy to breach.

In the cosmic fringes, how could such an Array Barrier exist, or a Great Emperor capable of establishing it?

The Ning’an Emperor’s gaze shifted to the Feihong Immortal Boat.

Soon, the Feihong Immortal Boat fully emerged from the spatial passage, with Lu Chen’s Emperor clone appearing on the palace rooftop of the Immortal Boat.

Hmm?

The Ning’an Emperor made a sound of surprise upon realizing the Emperor aboard the Feihong Immortal Boat seemed to have only the realm of the First Layer Emperor, wondering if he had mistaken.

Soon after, the Ning’an Emperor blinked and surveyed again, finding the person still emitted merely the aura of the First Layer Emperor.

Beside the Ning’an Emperor, another Emperor of the Third Layer Realm chuckled, “I thought it was a mighty being, but it’s just merely a First Layer Emperor.”

“Do you really think adding a First Layer Emperor means we can’t deal with you?”

As he spoke, that Emperor directly released his Law Manifestation, which soon arrived at the blue barrier.

With a swift motion, the Law Manifestation swung a blade.

Xuanming Sky Splitting Saber!!!

The giant saber held by the Emperor’s Law Manifestation emitted dense black energy, swiftly enveloping the surrounding void, as a thick blade qi cleaved towards the blue barrier.

As that Emperor seemed to expect to easily slay Lu Chen, the blade qi merely struck the blue barrier; its integrity remained unshaken, not even creating a ripple.

Witnessing this, the Emperor was stunned mid-air, having exerted ninety percent of his power only to be easily thwarted?

What was with this blue barrier?

How could such a barrier exist in such a remote corner?

Thinking of something, the Ning’an Emperor didn’t rush to attack but asked, “Who are you? Why save him?”

With these words, the Ning’an Emperor cast a glance at the Mingxin Emperor.

Before Lu Chen could speak, the Mingxin Emperor hastily addressed Lu Chen, “Paying respects to Your Majesty!”

“Thank Your Majesty for saving the citizens of Mingxin Dynasty!”

Upon hearing the Mingxin Emperor’s words, the Ning’an Emperor comprehended that the newcomer must be from the previously mentioned Daxia Dynasty.

Observing Lu Chen closely, the Ning’an Emperor pondered a bit; how could an Empire’s ruler at only the First Layer Emperor Realm command another Emperor’s loyalty?

This truly puzzled the Ning’an Emperor as to what was special about this person, or whether the blue barrier was his greatest means.

Lu Chen didn’t immediately respond to the Ning’an Emperor’s query, instead, glancing at the Mingxin Emperor and calmly remarking, “You’ve done very well!”

Upon receiving Lu Chen’s compliment, the Mingxin Emperor swiftly replied, “It’s what subordinates should do.”

Lu Chen turned to Ning’an Emperor, smiled asking, “For a Great Emperor of the Sixth Layer Realm, choosing not to protect his Empire and abandoning his own citizens to escape, isn’t it shameful?”

The Ning’an Emperor scoffed coldly, “It is hardly your place as a mere First Layer Emperor to lecture me!”

“Speak, just who are you? There’s no way a Great Emperor adept in such formations would exist at the cosmic fringes!”

Having garnered a suspicion regarding Lu Chen’s identity, the Ning’an Emperor conjectured that such formidable Array might not be conjured by a Great Emperor from the cosmic edges.

Recalling the reason for the Shenyue Dynasty’s military action, the Ning’an Emperor instinctively guessed the person before him was likely the Prince Lu Chen mentioned by the Mingxin Emperor.

Lu Chen lightly retorted, “What business is my identity of yours?”

The Ning’an Emperor snorted coldly, promptly saying, “This Emperor desires to see how resilient your formation truly is!”

As he spoke, the aura over the Ning’an Emperor surged.

He then shouted, “Chaotic Cloud Sword!!”

Instantly, countless golden swords shot towards the barrier created by the Immortal Spirit Umbrella, yet as before, those golden swords hit the blue barrier and vanished immediately, causing no sensation, like stones tossed into the ocean.

Refusing to accept defeat, the Ning’an Emperor persistently attacked, yet the outcome remained unchanged.

Finally, the Ning’an Emperor halted his assault, with his eagle eyes fixed on the blue barrier, seemingly contemplating.

Seeing the Ning’an Emperor cease his attack, Lu Chen smiled and asked:

“Are you preparing to surrender?”

The Ning’an Emperor chuckled, and then his aura surged anew.

Huh?

Lu Chen paused briefly, noticing the Ning’an Emperor seemed to be exuding faint purple flames.

Is this…
